Church publishes prayer book for bosses and workers

No longer does one have to look up the Bible for advice if fed up with life at office, for the Church of England has come up with a prayer book aimed at bosses and their workers.

According to The Mirror, ruthless employers who feel guilty when sacking someone can say: "This man's got a family and tonight he'll have no income. Today he's got self-esteem, tonight he will feel rejected."

For sacked employees, there is: "I feel I have been used up and spat out by an employer." For those with a mean boss, the prayer reads: "Between you and me, Father, I would rather work for Attila the Hun."

The Pocket Prayers for Work also offers words of comfort for business travellers, fed-up commuters and teachers.
